QuizList

We start with a lyric as usual, but an obscure one this time.  It reflects that changes to the site are in progress.  I’ve added a link at the side for free quiz questions and started it off with a really good themed quiz written by ‘Bible John’ – had to delete picture and music rounds as they would have been meaningless, of course.  I’ll add to this resource as more questions or full quizzes become available.  Observations on pub quiz machines will feature more in a similar resource when I get round to it.

The answers to last week’s questions are (and I’m not going to repeat the questions, as I note I cut and pasted them from a variety of sources and they look awful):

1. Michael Collins
2. Roman Polanski
3. The Honeycombs
4. Any of Mighty Quinn, Doo Wah Diddy, or Pretty Flamingo
5. He didn’t have one
6. RTE started broadcasting from there
7. Katharine Ross
8. Nelson’s Pillar, Dublin
9. Che Guevara
10. Mods and Rockers
